Boundedly Compact Space


A metric space X is boundedly compact if all closed bounded subsets of X are compact. Every boundedly compact metric space is complete. (This is a generalization of the Bolzano-Weierstrass theorem.)

Every complete Riemannian manifold is boundedly compact. This is part of or a consequence of the Hopf-Rinow theorem.
